Dozens of people are queuing up to use toilets in Musiri, a remote town in Tamil Nadu, where authorities have succeeded in keeping street corners clean with the new scheme, a newspaper said on Sunday.
"In fact, many of us started using toilets for urination only after the ecosan (ecological sanitation) toilets were constructed in the area," said S Rajasekaran, a truck cleaner.
The urine was also being collected and tested for its efficacy as a crop fertiliser, an official of the state's agricultural university added.
People relieving themselves in the open are a common sight in India's rural towns and villages, as basic sanitation still eludes millions.
